Aquaphone. With the Aquaphone you can send voice messages to the opposite side of the pool. Your words create bubbles which float in the virtual water; with the Aquaphone's sensor they can be opened and heard. Run the sensor over the play area and catch the bubbles of the person opposite - you will then hear the message sent to you over the loudspeaker.

LifeformsShape the living organism of the Cyberhelvetia.ch pool - run your finger over the luminous glass surface in the middle of the bench and amuse yourself with the darting and harmless sea snake!
